UL Monroe at LSU

UL Monroe was looking as if it had made much improvement over last season's 0-10 record, but the Warhawks now have lost three in a row and their record has fallen to 4-6 on the season and 3-6-1 ATS. Monroe hasn't covered any of its last three games that included a 59-28 blowout loss at Appalachian State. The Warhawks are #122 in the country in yards allowed while giving up 35.4 points per game. LSU is ready to break out with a big win after coming close against Alabama and then losing in overtime to Arkansas. Garrett Nussmeier threw for 179 yards and a touchdown but with two picks against the Razorbacks. UL Monroe is 0-5 ATS its last five road games, 3-8 ATS its last 11 November games and 3-7 ATS its past 10 as an underdog. The Tigers are 7-3-1 ATS following a loss and 7-3 ATS their past 10 non-conference games. LSU allowed only a combined 36 points against two good offensive teams in Alabama and Arkansas and Monroe will be fortunate to get much of anything on the board. Play LSU.
